AAT - Advanced Arc Technology
A revolutionary PVD Arc technology delivering unmatched performance and results
Revolutionary PVD Arc Technology gives you unmatched performance and results
This innovative technology provides unparalleled versatility thanks to the perfectly tuned interaction between its trigger and high-end arc source design, and the quickly adjustable electromagnetic field.
These essential components have been significantly enhanced to develop efficient, reliable and productive systems and to enable uniform coatings. AAT gives you better-quality coatings than ever before.
High-End arc source design
- High-end design allows wide variety of target materials
- Increased coating uniformity
- High coating efficiency
- No moving parts – improved stability
Fast adjustable electromagnetic field
- Different target materials in one target – bi-material target
- High utilization of target materials (up to 60%)
- Facilitation of different coating structures
- Reproduceable coating structure through controlled discharged voltage
New trigger
- Fast trigger frequency for multi/nano layer coatings
- Maintenance free and almost no wear
- Not in front of the target, thus no droplets created by triggering
Future-Ready Coating Architectures
Quick and easy change of the coating structure, supports new coating architectures
Productivity Increase & Cost Savings
Increased loading capacity, higher deposition rate, enhanced target utilization and shorter batch times
Versatile Multi-Material Target Concept
Supports a variety of coating structures from gradient to multi-/nano-layer coatings
Energy & Resource Efficiency
Lower energy consumption and efficient cooling/heating system
Previous Generation Compatibility
Compatible with accessories including carousels, fixtures, loading tables and cart system
Advanced Chamber Design
Three sources for superior coating quality, up to eight target materials, and simplified target exchange process
Arc Evaporation
In arc evaporation, a small spot of a high electrical current moves on the surface of a target. The material immediately melts and the metal vapour condenses on the work piece. Because of the explosive nature of the process, droplets of liquid metal are formed, which may cause a rough surface of the coating surface. Reactive gas can be introduced to form compounds.
Process characteristics
- High degree of Ionisation
Coating properties
- High density, high hardness
- Excellent adhesion
- Less smooth, droplets
